Eastwoop: New Species oF WESTERN PLANTS 497 
sions ribbon-like, the two upper ones cleft to below the middle, 
the three lower almost to the base : filaments slender, hairy below 
the middle ; anthers white : style surpassing the stamens : nutlets 
immature. 
This was collected by the author at Laytonville, Mendocino 
County, California, Aug. 2, 1902. 
It comes in the aggregate under JZ villosa, but is quite unlike 
the type of that species as judged by a specimen collected at 
Bodega Bay, the type locality, which agrees exactly with the 
figure in Bot. Sulph. 
YLappula micrantha 
Stems leafy, branched from the woody root and paniculate 
above, about 5 dm. high: radical leaves oblong-lanceolate, some 
almost 2 dm. long, including the long margined petioles, canescent 
with appressed hairs; upper leaves sessile, much shorter, about 
5-10 cm. long, with apex mucronate or obtuse and margin entire : 
panicle loosely flowered, with open, spreading branches, the lower 
peduncles long, slender and naked, flowering at the end, the 
upper flowering almost to the base; pedicels slender, as long as 
the calyx, deflexed after anthesis : divisions of calyx oblong-ellip- 
tical, obtuse, about 2 mm. long: corolla with tube shorter than 
the calyx, lobes obtuse, a little more than 1 mm. long, shorter 
than the tube, the yellow crests in the throat conspicuous : anthers 
about as long as the filaments, extending to the crests: style fili- 
form, tipped by a capitate stigma: gynobase low, pyramidal : nut- 
lets ovate, 5 mm. long, the ventral surface with an ovate scar with 
lines radiating from it to the margin, both sides bristly or sca- 
brous; margin edged with purple subulate awns, 3 mm. long, 1.5 
mm. wide at base; these large awns often with smaller awns at 
the sides and always with shorter ones alternating ; at the middle 
of the dorsal surface a solitary rather large awn projects. 
This differs from all the described species in having much 
smaller flowers and in different character of the nutlets. The type 
was collected by the author at Twin Lakes, Trinity County, Cali- 
fornia, July 9, 1901. It grew along the banks of a small stream 
flowing from one of the high peaks into Cafion Creek. 
vSymphoricarpos glaucus 
Shrub, with reddish brown epidermis, the older shreddy, the 
younger reddish and as if covered with a bloom, the pubescence 
of fine curly hairs: leaves glaucous, with pubescence like the 
stems, rhombic-obovate, the apex obtuse or callous-mucronate, at
